SCIWC campsite policies

Booking Information

The St. Croix
International Waterway Commission reserves the right to limit the number of
people, vehicles, and accommodations at each site, and to restrict open fires
at any time. The SCIWC, while making every effort to look after your
well-being, is not responsible for any personal injury, loss, or damage of
personal property.

Camper responsibility: Campsite registrants are responsible
for leaving their site in clean and sanitary condition upon departure and are
responsible for the conduct of all people on their site during their stay.

Check In: After 2pm (Atlantic time)

Check out: 2pm (Atlantic time) Campers not
vacating their site by this time will be charged for an additional night.

Fires: Fires are restricted to authorized
site fire pits or to self-contained fire rings approved by the park manager.
Park staff will dispose of all fire ashes-please consult with them for details.
Open fires may be restricted at any time. It is the site registrant’s
responsibility to obey all fire restrictions once informed.

Firewood: Please note that you will not be
able to bring firewood across the border if travelling from the US. Firewood is
available to purchase onsite and locally. Please do not remove trees from the park for
campfires; destruction of living trees on Crown Lands and in protected areas may result in fines or charges. Consult with park staff if you have questions.

Firearms and fireworks: The possession or use of firearms,
air arms or explosives is prohibited in the park AT ALL TIMES. Fireworks are NOT permitted. Failure to comply may result in additional charges or a future ban.

Recreational vehicles: Responsible use of properly licensed recreational vehicles (ATVs) is permitted on designated roadways. Please
respect signage and barriers that are in place; these prevent shoreline erosion
and destruction of campsites.

Garbage and waste: Users are responsible for taking all garbage and recyclables with them when they leave. Failure to leave
the site clean may result in additional charges or future bans. Trailer users must contain all black and gray water and dispose of at proper dumping stations. There are no dumping facilities in our parks; illegal dumping will result in fines and bans from our facilities.

Hours and Occupancy: Park gates are open between 7 am and
11 pm Atlantic time. Camping is limited to a stay of 7 nights unless
pre-arranged by SCIWC staff.

Quiet hours: To respect the wilderness character
of this park, quiet is required throughout the park between 11 pm and 7 am. The
use of generators is restricted to shorter hours – please consult staff for
details. Please respect other users in the park and along the waterway and keep noise limited to your own site at all times.

Pets: Well behaved pets are welcome. Pets must be
restrained (on leash or tied) and supervised at all times. Unsupervised animals
will be reported to animal control.

Reservation
and Cancellation policy

For all bookings, full payment is required. No sites will be held without payment.

A non-refundable fee of $5 will apply to every
reservation.

Campsites that are paid in full will be
held the first night, but if you do not arrive before 10 am the next day, the
site will be forfeit, without refund.

Cancellations made 14 days before arrival
date will be refunded in full, minus the $5 fee described above.

Any cancellations made within 14 days of the arrival date will not be refunded. Refunds will not be given for bad weather unless the campsites are inaccessible.

Refunds will not be given to users who do not complete the terms of their reservation unless they have provided the SCIWC with the details of these changes 14 days prior to arrival.

Once a booking has been completed, any changes to that reservation will result in a $5 fee. Please ensure that your reservation is correct at the time of booking. The exception to this is if you would like to extend your stay, or if you have additional tents with you at the time of arrival. These payments can be made at that time.

The maximum stay at any of our sites is 7 consecutive nights. The exceptions to this are the four sites that have been designated for seasonal use at Spednic Lake Provincial Park.

The SCIWC reserves the right to change these policies at any time, or to cancel a reservation at any time.
